former new hampshire governor john sununu is joining us now to tell us what governor romney needs to do to make a difference in this race. governor, great to have you here. welcome. >> it's nice to be here. happy saturday. >> happy saturday to you too. many are saying this first debate is a make or break moment for mitt romney. do you agree? >> well, look, i listened to the democratic representative that was on earlier, and i found it fascinating about the way they're trying to play down the president's chances in this. i guess they're really worried he'll have to talk without a teleprompter, and that certainly puts him at a disadvantage. i think mitt romney is going to go into this debate recognizing that it's an opportunity for america to see him standing side by side with the president, and america's going to have to judge which one of these two individuals they want to come and solve the problems that the president is leaving us. i think it's going to be an opportunity for the governor to show america that he cares about the problems of individuals and communities in the country,
